What an awesome run through history! Great job!
500$ for an 89$ grill
thank you
I have two 3rd gen Crate & Barrel grass green performers bought used, they both came with the old style lid bales, plastic tables and were devoid of the GBS grates. The 4th generation performers had most if not all of those upgrades.
I have a deluxe performer from 2013, I think it is great, would recommend to any one. My only problem was with the auto ignition, gave me problems, now I turn on the gas and light with a lighter, no more problem.
I have one that is plastic table. I thought that was gen 2. It just doesn’t have the starter.
Love my second gen. I am going to upgrade my lid bail and eventually the top like you did. Thanks
I have two weber grill 😊
I just received my Weber 22 in. Performer Deluxe Charcoal Grill in Green about an hour ago. I just put it together but, what's that long chain with that wire attached that hangs from the inside for that was wrapped up and suck inside the front panel? I’m Not talking about the charcoal bucket wire. I found no illustrations or references about this. Thanks
I just got into the Weber game. Bought a Weber performer premium new for 90$ at an auction. Really lucked up!!
We have a premium performer. I think we bought it in 2008-10. However it has a "P" code on the
vent cover, which indicates a 1993 model. ?? I know it's newer than 1993. ??
So they charge slightly more for a garbage can to use as coal storage? Lol
Are all the grill grates the same gauge and metal?
Hey, I have a Webber 767001 22 1/2-Inch One-Touch Platinum Charcoal Grill I bought in 2004. Last year the plastic table cracked. This year it broke completely. I can’t seem to find a replacement table. Would the table for the Performer fit my grill. I ove my grill and don’t want to replace it just because the table is broke. Thanks
Do I just found a 99 in red at the thift store for fuckin $5!!!!!
You substituted the metallic top from a fiberglass one. Can you please include a link to which you purchased? Thanks
Are you in Gloucester? That grill store sure does look familiar…
In my country deluxe goes for 639€. Thats closer to 700 bucks. But im still gonna buy it. That huge table, gas ignition, gbs accessories and add ons, timer and all the minor accessories and the overall Weber quality is worth the steep price.
Don’t you dare talk about my mama!
Is $150 for gen 2 Deluxe gray top in good condition a good price ?
Loved the video brother 🤙🏾
Killed me on the prices y'all pay. The small performer with the fold down table is a hot ticket over here in AUS, goes for $699 RRP 😪
I really appreciate your research , and enjoy your history lessons of the various products…..You bring a whole new dimension to BarBQ'ing !!
😎👍💯🌟🌟🌟🌟
Any recommendations for paint? The weber performer deluxe I just bought was chipped on the bottoms of the 3 base tubes that go to ash catcher.
I have used weber kettles my entire life. However, I just got my first, modern, weber Performer Deluxe.
I had to go with the Black. And my only concern is the tiny casters. I'm going to figure a way to put some 10 inch pnuematic wheels on it so it moves easier. (I'm disabled, so mobility is important. )
Im looking for a stainless full coverage flat griddle now. I might just make my own. I love the idea of making giant smokey omelets for an early breakfast before getting my smoke on.
Thanks for the great vid btw!!! I love the weber History!!!
Nice job. I was confuse on those 3 model. I got ceramic kamado, metal kamado and a pellets pizza oven and it hung for a Weber performer.
I definitley could do without the starter but I like the storage basket and slightly larger work space of the mid teir model. Just sucks I would be drilling holes in any one of them for a probe port.
Ordered the deluxe yesterday. Great video but did not shorten my anticipation.
Your beard is on point! Perfectly sculpted.
fix yer ash hole
I love that green colour! I really love the simplicity of the basic stand alone Weber Premium! Weber accessories are always high quality!

I didn't know older Webers are collector items.
We just sold a house and moved. I had to limit the stuff we moved with.
I put my 25 year old 22" Weber kettle on Craigs list for free.
Can't believe how fast that went.
I think Weber Performer Deluxe for me now.
Last rodeo and all.
Weber Summit just too big.
i hope you get a commission from my purchase of the Deluxe 22 PERFORMER. I WOULD NOT HAVE BOUGHT IT WITHOUT YOUR VIDEO
I have to say , though late to game here, I always thought the Performers were overpriced. Then I found a used one locally, and picked it and have confess having that table and gas ignition system has changed how often I use this kettle over my other grills and I have 9. So now I'm debating whether to sell this one and just get a new one. Mine has that lid that doesn't completely get out of the way and there's some rust, does cook well though. Thanks for the video and your enthusiasm.
Where did you order your gourmet grates, table and your gen 3 lid holder? Want to make some upgrades to my gen 2
You very well spoken, your cadence is so clear, good editing, I'd say upgrade mic, audio was not bad just could be better. Thanks for the info. Keep it up. Oh yah liked and subscribed👍👍👍
